Abstract
Mobile devices are becoming very popular now-a-days and along with the misuse of these devices is also increasing. These devices can be lost or can be snatched for misuses then it becomes very important to track these devices as soon as possible. For this purpose, we have contact police till now, but this paper describes a system using which you can locate the mobile device using another mobile device by even sitting at your home. The system only requires the inbuilt GPS and GPRS in the device whose location is to be tracked. “Where are you? - A Location Awareness System” is a project that helps you to locate a friend or a known person without informing that person. The system is primarily designed to aware the people about locations and to help the authorities in tracking the location of a mobile device. The system can also be used to locate a friend.
